Latina student campaigns for Trump on the South Texas border

24-year-old Miriam Cepeda is part of an unlikely group: young, Latina women who support Donald Trump for president.

Cepeda doesn’t just support Trump privately — she actually campaigns for him at the University of Texas in Rio Grande Valley and in the community, not far from where Trump has vowed to build his wall along the South Texas border.

Although she is the daughter of an undocumented immigrant, Cepeda told CNN she strongly agrees with Trump’s immigration and border security policies.

“I first hand have seen … friends that are getting involved with illegal activity that’s associated with drugs or human trafficking,” she said. “It’s an issue that people need to realize is reality.”

Her message is unpopular in Texas’ Hidalgo County, which is one of the few Democratic areas of the deeply red state.
